Major boost for armed forces! India successfully test fires extended range of Pinaka rocket
In a serious increase for the armed forces, India on Wednesday efficiently test fired the prolonged vary of Pinaka rocket from Integrated Test Range (ITR) Chandipur off the coast of Odisha. It efficiently achieved a variety past 45 km.
A complete of six rockets have been launched in fast succession that hit the goal and the assessments met full mission targets. The improvement of Enhanced Pinaka system was taken as much as obtain longer vary efficiency in comparison with an earlier design with a lowered size.
The enhanced model of the Pinaka rocket would substitute the present Pinaka Mk-I rockets that are at the moment beneath manufacturing. The rocket has been developed by Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and was flight examined on November 4.
The design and improvement have been carried out by Pune based mostly DRDO laboratories, particularly Armament Research and Development Establishment, ARDE and High Energy Materials Research Laboratory, HEMRL.
Rockets examined have been manufactured by M/s Economic Explosives Limited, Nagpur, to whom the expertise has been transferred. All the flight articles have been tracked by Range devices equivalent to telemetry, radar and Electro-Optical Tracking Systems which confirmed the flight efficiency.
On October 19, India had efficiently testfired the Stand-off Anti-tank (SANT) Missile off the coast of Odisha. Developed by Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) for the Indian Air Force, the SANT missile can have each Lock-on After Launch and Lock-on Before Launch functionality, sources stated.
India test fired SANT missile only a day after a profitable test of the naval model of BrahMos supersonic cruise missile. The BrahMos missile was test-fired on Sunday from an indigenously-developed Indian Navy’s stealth destroyer INS Chennai. BrahMos as ‘prime strike weapon’ will make sure the invincibility of INS Chennai by partaking naval floor targets at lengthy ranges, stated DRDO. It added that the profitable test-firing of BrahMos will make INS Chennai one other deadly platform of Indian Navy.
Notably, BrahMos has been collectively designed, developed and produced by India and Russia.

On September 30, a BrahMos missile having a variety of round 400 km was examined from an built-in test vary at Balasore in Odisha. A major variety of the unique BrahMos missiles are already deployed by India in a number of strategic places alongside the Line of Actual Control with China in Ladakh and Arunachal Pradesh.
BrahMos missiles that may be launched from submarines, ships, plane, or from land platforms. In 2019, the Indian Air Force efficiently test fired the aerial model of the BrahMos missile from a Su-30 MKI fighter plane.
